However, the conventional multi-storey type parking device has a time for moving a tray (charging pallet) mounted with a parked vehicle from a lift device to a predetermined area, or from a predetermined area to the vicinity of the lift device. Since it takes time to move, priority is given to the lifting and lowering of the lift device for moving other parked vehicles, but in order to move the lift device and the tray with the parked vehicle in series sequentially However, it was impossible to cope with other situations such as the continued entry / exit of electric vehicles that charge batteries, making it difficult to operate efficiently.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION An object of the present invention is to provide a multi-storey parking apparatus that enables more efficient loading / unloading processing.

  In order to achieve the above object, the present invention moves an entrance floor, a parking space floor that stores a parked vehicle, and a parked vehicle that is lifted and mounted on a tray between the entrance floor and the parking space floor. In a multi-storey type parking device provided with a lifting device, a floor tray control unit that moves the tray after being lowered from the lifting device to the parking space floor within the parking space floor, and a movement form by the lifting device And a parking space by the floor tray control unit when the power saving detection unit detects the power saving state by the power saving detection unit. And a timing management unit that permits the movement of the tray in the floor.

  According to such a configuration, the parallel operation of the lift device and the tray by the floor tray control unit is configured to be permitted only in the division form in which the power consumption is reduced by the power saving time detection unit. In consideration of the power capacity of the parking system, the parallel operation of the lift device and the tray by the floor tray control unit is permitted in the sectional form where the power consumption is small, and efficient processing can be performed while suppressing power consumption. it can.

  Further, according to the present invention, in addition to the above-described configuration, the low power consumption section form includes a state when the lift device is not used and a time when the tray is lowered while the parked vehicle is mounted by the lift device. It is characterized by including.

  According to such a configuration, the lift device reliably distinguishes the low power consumption division form caused by the weight difference between the elevator platform side and the balance weight, and utilizes the operation time when the power consumption in the lift device is low. Parallel operation with the tray is permitted, and efficient processing can be performed while suppressing power consumption.

  In addition to the above-described configuration, the present invention is characterized in that the section with low power consumption does not include the time when the tray is lifted while the parked vehicle is mounted by the lift device.

  According to such a configuration, the lift device reliably distinguishes and excludes the large power consumption state caused by the weight difference between the lifting platform side and the balance weight, and uses the operation time when the power consumption in the lift device is small. Thus, parallel operation with the tray is permitted, and efficient processing can be performed while reducing power consumption.

  According to the multi-storey type parking apparatus according to the present invention, the parallel operation of the lift device and the tray by the floor tray control unit is configured to be permitted only in the division mode in which the power consumption is reduced by the power saving time detection unit. Therefore, in consideration of the power capacity of the multi-storey parking system, in the divided form where power consumption is reduced, parallel operation of the lift device and the tray by the floor tray control unit is permitted, and efficient processing while suppressing power consumption It can be performed.

It is a perspective view which shows the multi-storey type parking apparatus by one embodiment of this invention. It is sectional drawing of the multi-storey type parking apparatus shown in FIG. It is a block block diagram which shows schematic structure of the control apparatus in the multi-storey type parking apparatus shown in FIG.

Embodiments of the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings.
1 and 2 are a perspective view and a sectional view showing a multi-storey parking apparatus according to an embodiment of the present invention.

  The multi-story parking system has an entrance floor 1 having a building entrance 1A, a first parking space floor 2 formed on the first basement floor, and a second parking space floor 3 formed on the second basement floor. And the lift apparatus 6 which moves the parked vehicle 5 up and down between the entrance / exit floor 1 and each parking space floor 2 and 3 is comprised. The lift device 6 includes a pair of guide rails 7A and 7B fixed to a hoistway wall, a lift base 8 that can be lifted and lowered along the guide rails 7A and 7B, and a lift base 8 that moves up and down in FIG. It is comprised from the drive device 9 etc. which were shown. The lift device 6 mounts the parked vehicle 5 together with the tray 10 on the lifting platform 8 when it is positioned at the lift of the entrance floor 1, and then moves the parked vehicle 5 to the first parking space floor 2, for example. The mounted tray 10 is configured to be lowered from the lift 8 to the vicinity of the lift on the floor.

  The tray 10 moved to the first parking space floor 2 or the second parking space floor 3 by the lift device 6 includes a tray driving device configured on the lower surface side and a motor-driven tray configured on the floor surface side. A parked vehicle mounted on the tray 10 while using the drive device and using at least one empty space 29, 30 formed on the first parking space floor 2 or the second parking space floor 3 5 is moved to an arbitrary position and stored.

The tray 10 is classified into a normal use type and a charging type. When the battery is charged while the electric vehicle is parked, the charging type tray 10 is used. When the parked vehicle 5 is placed on the tray 10 on the entrance floor 1, the charging type tray 10 performs a first connection operation in which a driver or the like connects the battery of the electric vehicle and the tray side charging device. Thereafter, when the charging-type tray 10 is stored in a predetermined charging area, the current collector of the tray-side charging device is brought into contact with the current collector of the charging facility configured at the storage position. Is formed and charging is started. Here, for convenience of explanation, it is assumed that only the first parking space 2 is formed with a charging area in which charging equipment for charging a battery is parked while the electric vehicle is parked.
FIG. 3 is a block configuration diagram showing a schematic configuration of the control device in the above-described multi-storey parking apparatus.

  The entrance floor operation panel 11 operated by an operator such as a driver includes a warehousing operation unit 12 operated when entering a warehouse, a warehousing operation unit 13 operated when exiting, and a battery of an electric vehicle during parking. A charging operation unit 14 that is selectively operated when charging the battery is provided. Each input signal from the entrance / exit floor operation panel 11 is taken into the control device 15.

  The control device 15 controls the receiving unit 16 that receives a signal from the entrance / exit floor operation panel 11, the lift control unit 17 that controls the lift device 6 as a center, and the tray 10 in the first parking space 2 and the second parking space 3. Floor tray control unit 18, storage unit 19 storing a program for controlling each unit, and control unit 20 for controlling each unit based on this program.

  Here, the reason for dividing the lift control unit 17 and the floor tray control unit 18 that controls the tray 10 in the first parking space 2 and the second parking space 3 is not to operate both in series. This is to increase the efficiency by operating in parallel. However, if both are simply operated in parallel, the power consumption with respect to the power capacity of the multi-storey parking apparatus increases. Therefore, while considering power consumption, a mode classification with less power consumption for permitting parallel operation of both is set. Next, a specific configuration will be described together with the form sections with low power consumption.

  The lift control unit 17 includes a floor determination unit 21 that determines a corresponding floor according to a signal received by the reception unit 16, and a lift drive unit 22 that drives the lift device 6 according to a signal from the floor determination unit 21. And a power saving time detection unit 22 that detects whether or not it is a form segment with low power consumption, which will be described in detail later, in accordance with signals from the floor determination unit 21 and the lift drive unit 22.

  The floor determination unit 21 described above determines the floor in which the corresponding parked vehicle is stored if the signal taken into the reception unit 16 is, for example, a signal from the store operation unit 13, while the store operation unit 12. If the signal is from the charging operation unit 14, the storage floor in which the charging area is formed is determined.

  The lift drive unit 22 described above prepares the lifting / lowering platform 8 of the lift device 6 in which an empty tray 10 is placed on the entrance floor if the signal taken into the receiving unit 16 is only the signal from the warehousing operation unit 12, for example. After mounting the parked vehicle 5 on the tray 10, the elevator 8 is moved to a floor with an empty storage space. Also, if the lift drive unit 22 is a signal from the exit operation unit 13, the lift drive unit 22 first moves the elevator 8 of the lift device 6 to the floor stored by the corresponding parked vehicle, and then puts it on the tray 10. The corresponding parked vehicle 5 is mounted on the elevator 8 and moved to the entrance / exit floor.

  The above-described power saving detection unit 22 preliminarily sets a form category with low power consumption in consideration of power capacity and power consumption in the multi-storey parking apparatus. For example, a time zone in which the lift device 6 is not used, or a time zone in which a parked vehicle is mounted and the descent operation is performed at the time of entry is distinguished and detected. When a division form with low power consumption is detected, an operation permission signal is given to the floor tray control unit 18.

  When determining the classification mode with low power consumption, the lift 8 is used when the lift device 6 is not used, when the parked vehicle is mounted and the descending operation is performed at the time of warehousing. During the descending operation, the power consumption is also calculated for the up / down operation of the elevator 8 with no parked vehicle mounted, and it is determined whether or not to include in the classification form with low power consumption. However, during the up / down operation of the elevator 8 with the parked vehicle mounted, power consumption is large, so it is not included in this section form.

  In the above-described classification form with low power consumption, the descent operation performed by mounting the parked vehicle at the time of warehousing includes the balance of the weight about half of the weight on the platform 8 side in the drive device 9, for example. This is because, due to the weight, the load of the drive motor of the drive device 9 is smaller than that during the same ascending operation due to this weight difference, and the power consumption is reduced.

  When the floor tray control unit 18 described above receives an operation permission signal from the power saving time detection unit 22, the timing management unit 24 takes in a signal from the lift drive unit 21 and creates actual start and end timings; A first tray drive unit 25 that controls the tray 10 in the first parking space floor 2 based on the start signal from the timing management unit 24, and a tray in the second parking space floor 3 based on the start signal from the timing management unit 24. 10 and a second tray driving unit 26 for controlling 10.

  Here, the processing contents in the first tray driving unit 25 and the second tray driving unit 26 are almost the same except that the floors in charge are different, so the first tray driving unit 25 will be described. Description of is omitted. The operation of each unit will be described by taking as an example a case where the battery is charged while an electric vehicle is parked as a parked vehicle.

  First, the driver operates the warehousing operation unit 12 and the charging operation unit 14 shown in FIG. At this time, these signals are taken into the receiver 16. The signal from the reception unit 16 is given to the floor determination unit 21. Since the signal from the charging operation unit 14 is included, the floor determination unit 21 determines that the battery is to be powered while parking the electric vehicle, selects the first parking space floor 2 as the parking floor, and lifts. A warehousing and charging signal is given to the drive unit 21 and the power saving detection unit 22.

  Upon receipt of this signal, the lift drive unit 22 waits at the entrance / exit floor in a state where an empty tray is placed on the lifting platform 8 in preparation for warehousing. In addition, the power saving time detection unit 22 that has received this signal includes a descent operation at the time of warehousing, and therefore provides an operation permission signal for permitting parallel operation to the timing management unit 24.

  The timing management unit 24 receives the operation permission signal from the power saving time detection unit 22 and the status signal from the lift drive unit 22 to create an actual timing, and supplies the actual timing to the first tray drive unit 25. The 1st tray drive part 25 controls the tray 10 in the 1st parking space 2 using this timing. For example, as a preliminary preparation process in the first parking space floor 2, when a corresponding parked vehicle is sent from the lift device 6, the parked vehicle is smoothly moved to a charging area where charging facilities are provided for charging the battery. Preparatory work may be performed so that it can move. Specifically, the first tray driving unit 25 creates an empty space near the lift opening of the lift device 6 in the first parking space floor 2 and then smoothly moves the parked vehicle to the charging area where the charging facility is installed. To be able to move to. This pre-preparation process can be omitted, but when it is carried out, when the lift 8 of the lift device 6 arrives at the first parking space floor 2 and returns to the entrance / exit floor 1, which is the standby position, the lift device 6 Since the power consumption increases, it is desirable to complete before that.

  Thereafter, the lift drive unit 22 of the lift control unit 17 shown in FIG. 3 has the tray 10 and the parked vehicle 5 mounted on the lift 8 as shown in FIGS. Move 8 to the first parking space floor 2. When the tray 10 with the parked vehicle 5 mounted is lowered from the elevator platform 8 to the vicinity of the elevator opening of the first parking space floor 2, the current lifting operation in the lift device 6 is completed, and if it enters a standby state, it goes to the entrance floor 1. Is returned. If the ascending operation at this time is not included in the form category with low power consumption, the parallel operation is not permitted, and the movement of the tray 10 by the first tray driving unit 25 is interrupted.

  After that, when the power saving time determination unit 22 determines that the lift device 6 is not in use, an operation permission signal for permitting parallel operation is provided to the first tray driving unit 25 through the timing management unit 24. Upon receiving this signal, the first tray driving unit 25 continues the feeding process of the tray 10 and moves the parked vehicle 5 to the charging area where the charging facility is provided. As described above, the tray 10 mounted with the parked vehicle 5 at this time is moved while changing the position of the empty space by moving the nearby movable tray while using the empty space 26. When the tray 10 arrives at a predetermined area, the electric circuit between the charging facility and the tray side charging device is completed, and charging of the battery is started.

  On the other hand, during the movement of the tray 10 on the first parking space floor 2 described above, the exit operation unit 13 is operated from the entrance floor operation panel 11 and the parked vehicle stored in the first parking space floor 2 is exited. Suppose that The power saving time detection unit 22 determines that a partition mode in which the power consumption is increased such that the ascending operation is performed in a state where the parked vehicle is mounted on the lifting platform 8 is included in the leaving operation. Is given to the timing management unit 24.

  The timing management unit 24 captures an actual signal from the lift driving unit 21 and interrupts the feeding operation of the tray 10 by the first tray driving unit 25 before the lifting / lowering table 8 is lifted. Avoid parallel operation.

  Thereafter, when the lift operation of the lift device 6 is completed, a parallel operation permission signal is given from the power saving time determination unit 22 to the timing management unit 24 this time. The timing management unit 24 resumes and completes the tray movement process by the first tray driving unit 25 at the timing.

  In this manner, the parallel operation of the lift device 6 and the first tray driving unit 25 or the second tray driving unit 26 is permitted only in the divided form in which the power consumption is reduced by the power saving time detection unit 22. Therefore, in the sectional form in which the power consumption is reduced while considering the power capacity of the multi-story parking device, the parallel movement of the lift device 6 and the tray 10 by the first tray driving unit 25 or the second tray driving unit 26 is performed. Permitted, efficient processing can be performed while reducing power consumption. In particular, the time required to store the tray 10 as compared to the conventional method in which the movement of the lifting platform 8 of the lift device 6 is prevented until the movement of the tray 10 is completed in the first parking space floor 2 as in the prior art. Can be shortened and the processing efficiency at the time of loading / unloading can be increased.

  In the above-described embodiment, the case where the battery is charged while the electric vehicle is parked as the parked vehicle is illustrated, but the present invention can be similarly applied to the case where other general parked vehicles are parked. In addition, the present invention is not limited to the above-described configuration, and can be applied to multi-story parking apparatuses having various configurations. Furthermore, the charging area is not limited to a method formed only on a specific floor, and is distributed over multiple floors. Thus, the same configuration can be applied even to the configurations formed respectively.

  As described above, the present invention is mounted on the tray 10 by being moved up and down between the entrance floor 1, the parking space floors 2 and 3 for storing the parked vehicles 5, and the entrance floor 1 and the parking space floors 2 and 3. In a multi-story parking device provided with a lift device 6 that moves a parked vehicle 5 in a state, the tray 10 after being lowered from the lift device 6 to the parking space floors 2 and 3 is moved in the parking space floors 2 and 3. The floor tray control unit 18, the power saving time detection unit 22 that determines whether or not the movement mode by the lift device 6 belongs to the low power consumption classification mode, and the power saving time detection unit 22 uses the low power consumption detection mode 22. A timing management unit 24 that permits the movement of the tray 10 in the parking space floors 2 and 3 by the floor tray control unit 18 when detected is provided.

  According to such a configuration, the parallel operation of the lift device 6 and the tray 10 by the floor tray control unit 18 is configured to be permitted only in the division form in which the power consumption is reduced by the power saving time detection unit 22. Therefore, in consideration of the power capacity of the multi-story parking device, in the sectional form in which the power consumption is reduced, parallel operation of the lift device 6 and the tray 10 by the floor tray control unit 18 is permitted, and the power consumption is reduced and the efficiency is reduced Processing can be performed.

  Moreover, in addition to the above-described configuration, the present invention can be divided into a mode in which power consumption is low when the lift device 6 is not used and when the tray 10 with the parked vehicle 5 mounted thereon is lowered by the lift device 6. It is characterized by including.

  According to such a configuration, the lift device 6 reliably distinguishes the form of low power consumption caused by the weight difference between the lifting platform 8 side and the balance weight, and the lift device 6 can be operated when the power consumption is low. By utilizing this, parallel operation with the tray 10 is permitted, and efficient processing can be performed while suppressing power consumption.

  Further, in addition to the above-described configuration, the present invention is characterized in that the section form with low power consumption does not include the time of ascending operation of the tray 10 in which the parked vehicle 5 is mounted by the lift device 6. .

  According to such a configuration, when the lift device 6 is in operation when the power consumption of the lift device 6 is small, the lift device 6 reliably distinguishes and excludes the state of high power consumption caused by the weight difference between the lifting platform 8 side and the balance weight. Thus, parallel operation with the tray 10 is permitted, and efficient processing can be performed while reducing power consumption.
